FS: Steel beads of rice accent 22mm band European 1960s/70s NOS

Great finishing touch for a variety of 1960s/70s watches. New Old Stock stainless steel rally bracelet with rice beads connecting open links. Will suit watches from satin steel to fully polished because it has a combination of the high-polished rice bead links connecting matte-finished satin links. Will also fit many size wrists because it has a hidden extension inside the clasp that can extend the length to 7 1/4 inches (18.3cm), a rare feature for vintage bracelets.

New Old Stock item from the 1960s/70s. Comes boxes like an NSA band. This one was made by FS in West Germany at the time. The band has solid steel links. As pictured the ends are 22mm wide, or I can deliver the band with 18mm, 19mm, 20mm or 21mm wide ends. The last link before the ends is 18mm wide. The links are 2.7mm thick. The band weighs 40 grams, about the same as an NSA.

This can be made a comfortable length for nearly any size wrist. The band adjusts from 6 1/2 inches long to shorter lengths by removing any of three removable links with pins or more links by opening the rice bead connectors. Or you can use the hidden clasp extension feature to make the bracelet incremental longer lengths from 6 1/2 inches (16.7cm) long to 7 1/4 inches (18.3cm) long. The hidden clasp sliding sizing feature is also used as a micro-adjustment feature, so you can adjust the band's length in a small increment without having to remove or add links.
